Nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really like however they are a little loose for my head. The sound is great and I like the way you can turn it off and on. They are very pricey so hoping they last a long time as my Beats did not.

Superb
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Superb. Very light. I was debating on APM but these are far better from fashion and tech perspective. And I am an all-Apple person. Get these or Momentum 4 or the Bose.

I have had other wireless Bose models and I like these Sony's better. Its not tight out of the box (Bose 700) and squeezing my head. The headphones sound great and filled with a ton of features.

XM5 for the win!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the real deal. After trying a friends XM4, I had to grab them when they came out. Absolutely fantastic. I no longer have to suffer through the mindless conversation that goes on between my coworkers. Thank you Sony, you have saved my sanity and quite possibly my coworkers lives.

Good mic quality joins excellent music playback
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded from XM3 which had poor or malfunctioning mics. Sound quality is great as ever, mic quality seems good according to co workers. I miss the folding aspect of the old style but don't have much of a commute so it's not a deal breaker. Wish there was some voice signal for switching between paired devices like my Bose earbuds, but it's not a huge deal.

Best headphones
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously used Bose QC 35 II on my computer and QC 700s for my mobile and tablet. These absolutely crush both of those headsets. They arent as good as my Sennheiser 600S but these have the best noise cancellation of the three compared headsets.
